Sewer odor when towing

Today I tried to Ops Check the Calgon and laundry detergent. Started by dumping the tanks both black and gray. Added the ingredients to the tanks with a few gallons of water. We drove about 100 miles toward Denali NP. When we stopped for a necessary break, the odor was present. RATS! We then continued toward Anchorage and stopped for the night at Willow AK. I figured the odor would be present. TO our surprise we were odor free. Yippee Skippy! We will try it again tomorrow and post the results. Hoping the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) method worked!

That's good news CM. If you are traveling daily or more than a couple of times a week, I would only use the soap/calgon about once a week. The rest of the time, a few gallons of water in a freshly drained tank should suffice.

Just remember to use plenty of water when using the toilet and when draining/rinsing.

Have a great trip in Alaska.

We are in Homer Alaska and the problem continues. We are headed toward Anchorage tomorrow but it will take a few days to get there as there are a few places we missed on our way down the Kenai Peninsula. I believe there is a Camping World in Anchorage where I will pick up and install the Cyclone vent caps. I don't like being this tall let alone climbing up on the roof...

Thanks again for the help and advise.
